The Mission manages to be both magnificent and curiously uninvolving, a buddy movie played in soutanes.

Time Out
"The Mission" is everything a movie should be -- magnificently produced, epic in scope, serious in theme -- everything, that is, but good.

Washington Post
"The Mission" effectively dramatizes yet another chapter in the ruthless European conquest of the Americas. It'll make you hate the whole of western civilization with every fiber of your being.

...a little too pious for its own good. Be that as it may, the movie's heart is in the right place.
